Where is this kettle made?

My kettle is a Chef's Choice not a Toastess model.According to the bottom of the kettle it is Made in China for a company based in Avondale, PA. This might help you but not with a Toastess.

In very small print on the bottom "made in China". One drawback to shopping on line is there's no way that I'm aware of to know where your product is made.

You guessed it "Made in China" (like everything else)..something really must be done about this. It is still working great. However I must qualify this by say. I live in Germany right now. I come back for the holidays, Christmas and again in April for 3 weeks each time, so it gets limited use. I only use distilled water to keep the inside cleaner. I would buy another one if it ever broke.

Mine says Toastess DLJK 459 on the bottom sticker, and also says Made in China. I bought it about a year ago or more.

I don't see anything to indicate where it was manufactured. Nevertheless , for the money, I would look elsewhere. The handle broke on me at the weld, spilling hot water all over. I had it rewelded for around $25. All they do is boil water, so why spend so much, especially if they are not made well.

This is confusing...it says "Made in China" at the bottom of the base, but the glass kettle says Germany....so ?????? I still love this teakettle; maybe it was mfg'd in China to German standards? It also says "SCHOTT" and "DURAN" on the glass..... But it is the best one I have ever had...and I have had a number of these things.

I don't know where the unit was manufactured. Didn't see any indications on the kettle or the box.But as far as the quality it is OK. The only issue is that you do have to remember to put the whistlingtop on so that the water does not completely evaporate and the unit breaks. I did this several timesand it survived, but after the 3rd or fourth time it broke. Still, it is a very good product and I love seeingexactly the quantity of water and the state of boiling or not. I like it. I have been using these for years.Good Luck.

The box says Made in USA. The tea kettle itself doesn't have a place of origin, so I checked with Williams-Sonoma online, and they have posted, Made in China. UGH!

I have purchased two of these Le Creuset 1.2 Quart stainless steel kettles. The first one, which i bought over a year ago, was made in Thailand. The second one, which I bought a few months ago, was made in China.

Just to add to this conversation, even if many month later: I called All Clad and they said the tea kettle is made in China. Most of their products are. Made I n the US! Except for specialty items like this. It is made in an All Clad factory, not sub-contracted out, and it is made to their specs and monitored, as they do in all their factories. Given this response I am going to buy the tea kettle because I have had their cookware for many years and am satisfied. I have to trust them, even though I am not in the h a it of trusting corporations anymore, in particular those having anything to do with the growing and preparation of food.

Hi Cynthia,We looked into this for you and this kettle is actually made in Indonesia.

I'm not sure, but I think it was made in China. Ours served us very well for a good amount of time, but then it developed tiny cracks and tea started to seep through in very small droplets. We decided to scrap it, thaough I thought it should have lasted much longer. We now have a cast iron tea pot (also made in China). I love it! I hope this helps.

Hey Pat, this kettle is made in China. Source: looked at the bottom of the kettle. If it matters, I've never had a problem with this kettle and I would recommend it to my family and friends. Edit: I am an avid tea drinker. I would notice any weird taste in my water. I thought this might be relevant.

The kettle is stamped made in Germany, and I love it! I have one, my mother has one, and so does my daughter. I whole heartedly recommend this item.

According Wikipedia in 2002 the last bit of manufacturing was moved to China: "In March 2002, Salton Europe closed down their factory on Bridgnorth Road in Wombourne near Wolverhampton, moving their last bit of production to China. [7] The kettle switches are made by Strix, based in the Isle of Man, which makes switches for most other kettle manufacturers.[8]"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell_Hobbs

The kettle itself is not marked as to country of manufacture but is marked as designed by Sori Yanagi, a Japanese designer. The literature that came with the tea kettle says it was shipped from Japan by ALEXCIOUS. It is a well built, high quality stainless steel tea kettle combining beautiful function and form.

Not sure-I don't have the box anymore-maybe in product description on amazon. But, wherever it's made it's an outstanding kettle. I use it 3-5 times a day. Have had over a year. Great appliance!

The only part of the kettle that's plastic are the handle (no water contact) and the lid, which obviously gets condensation. I've never had an issue with weird tasting water or the lid warping. It's a very solid product. I honestly don't know where it was made though.

I don't have an answer for you, Toni, but I'm with you about not buying any made in China. It shouldn't be too much to ask to be able to buy a quality kettle not made in China. Good luck!

My box had made in China on it, it came from Medelco, Inc Bridgeport, CT. I love mine, it is better than the tea kettle on the stove.
